The melting points of n-pentane (I), isopentane (II) and neopentane (III) increase in the order:

The melting points of n-pentane (I), isopentane (II) and neopentane (I

1.	The melting points of n-pentane (I), isopentane (II) and neopentane (III) increase in the order:
Answer» `II lt I lt III` `III lt II lt I` `III lt I lt II` `I lt II lt III` Solution :Neopentane (III) being most symmetrical has the HIGHEST m.p. followed by n pentane while isopentane(II) being LEAST symmetrical has the LOWEST m.p.
